Dieppe Race 1 - Prix De La Valette Mdn Stakes
St Mark's Basilica gelding BALAKIREV (9) is out of a mare who won in Listed company. Selected to make a winning debut for a top stable. NO REMORSE (1) raced from the front prior to fading late on in registering a 3.25L fifth in a 1400m maiden at Saint-Cloud. Expected to play a hand in the finish. SAYVILLE (4) looks capable of delivering a big effort with a top jockey up following a 6.5L seventh in the previously mentioned Saint-Cloud race. OASIS BEACON (8) stepped up on his debut effort in registering a 0.5L second over 1350m at Angers. Notable contender racing in a tongue tie for the first time.

Second run back. First-up after three months ran second last of 9 at Chantilly on June 19 over 1200m, 21 len behind Ulymine carrying 53kg at $31. Previously second-up 6th of 10 at Cagnes-sur-Mer All Weather on January 20 over 1600m, 7 len behind Eostre carrying 56.5kg at $22. Fitter but must improve sharply.

Comes off a 41 day let-up. Last start 7th of 10 at Saint-Cloud on June 2 over 1400m, slow going 6 len behind Taxi Rose carrying 58kg at $12. The start before that 3rd of 12 at Chantilly on May 12 over 1600m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Swift Magic carrying 58kg at $20. Genuine chance this time around.

First-starter by St Mark's Basilica out of Padovana (EUR € 80,000 (Arqana 2025 Breeze Up) purchase). Should have plenty of admirers.
